{Review} Unstoppable DVD by Kirk Cameron

Where is God in the midst of tragedy and suffering? As Kirk Cameron says at the opening ofUNSTOPPABLE, this is one of the biggest questions we face, no matter our background orbelief system. UNSTOPPABLE tackles this question based on what we can know fromexperience, along with what we can learn from history and from God’s Word.

UNSTOPPABLE, a joint project between Kirk Cameron and Liberty University, addresses deep questions of faith related to pain, grief, suffering, and death.In UNSTOPPABLE, Cameron takes the viewer on a personal journey of his own wrestling of faith. He starts at the very beginning of Genesis and weaves the story of God's grace, mercy, and purposes working in the lives of His people.

UNSTOPPABLE tackles the tough issues of tragedy and suffering in a sober and serious manner. It is a reflective film that will cause you to consider your own faith journey with the Lord. Tragedy, grief, and suffering are the difficult parts of our human experience that can either lead us to a deeper faith or shatter our core beliefs. Cameron shares a thoughtful perspective on the eternal hope we have in the Lord in the midst of pain.

Kirk tells us he has “hope that every tragedy in my life and in yours, every future tragedy andevery future pain and struggle and suffering and death God can and will use those things for hisgreater glory and for our good. Because that’s what He’s been doing all along.”

Publisher Description:
During its two night theatrical event this past fall UNSTOPPABLE: A Live Event with Kirk Cameron sold a staggering 260,000 tickets and reached a theatrical gross of over $3.2 million dollars. On January 28, 2014, Provident Films will released UNSTOPPABLE to DVD. UNSTOPPABLE is a joint production between Kirk Cameron and Liberty University.

Inspired by the death of Cameron’s friend who succumbed to cancer at the age of 15, Cameron wanted to gain a better understanding of the role of tragedy in our lives today by going back to the beginning – literally -to Adam and Eve. Cameron investigates the origins of good and evil and how they impact our lives … and our eternities.

In UNSTOPPABLE Cameron takes audiences on an inspiring visual journey to better understand some of the biggest questions regarding their faith including “Where is God in the midst of tragedy and suffering?”, and “Why does God allow bad things happen to good people?”

“This is a very personal journey for me. I have been researching the whole idea of God in the midst of tragedy for 25 years…my wife and I started a camp for terminally ill children and their families so we see the frailty of life,” says Cameron. “For a mother and father to deal with losing and burying a child, there is a ripping of the heart that is unimaginable.”

UNSTOPPABLE will prompt audiences to consider the role that pain and suffering have in our lives as they affirm their personal views on faith, as well as encourage conversation starters about God, suffering, and hope.
